What is the wire called that you can slide onto the microswitches? Its wire and it has a metal part on the end that slides on... You find them connected to speakers too.

Thanks,

The connector at the end of the wire is a .187 female quick disconnect.  Home Depot will have the .250's, but to get the .187's you'll probably have to go to Ace Hardware or TruValue, or order them online.  You'll need the ones for 18-22 ga. wire; these are usually color-coded red.  If you're ordering parts from Happs, you can find them at http://www.happcontrols.com/wp/item_search.html?item-no=43-0538-00.

You'll also need a crimping tool to crimp them onto the wire, and the wire should be stranded hookup wire, not solid.

I've got both Red and Blue .187s available.  See the thread in the 'For Sale' forum.
